Sequans Communications S.A. acquired 755 more bitcoin for approximately $88.5 million, it confirmed on July 28, 2025. The purchase brings its total BTC holdings to 3,072 coins, worth $358.5 million based on acquisition cost. The average price paid per bitcoin, including fees, stands at $117,296.
The company used proceeds from its July 7 offering to fund this latest acquisition. Sequans continues its strategy of treating Bitcoin as a primary treasury reserve asset. It aims to preserve value and diversify capital by accumulating digital assets.
Sequans has now joined the ranks of aggressive BTC corporate holders, joining firms like Metaplanet and MicroStrategy. It also marks a rare move for a fabless semiconductor company. While most of the investment is in long-term holdings, market conditions still affect short-term outcomes.
Stock Slumps as Market Reacts, Volatility Near Cycle Lows
Sequans’ stock (SQNS) closed 7.91% lower at $1.98 on July 25. Pre-market trading saw an additional drop of 11.84% to $1.75, as shown on Google Finance. The market’s negative reaction suggests investor caution despite long-term bullish positioning.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s realized volatility has dropped to 70%, according to data from CryptoQuant. This is near the historical low of 62% seen in September 2023, when BTC was priced at $26,000. Such low volatility often precedes strong directional moves in Bitcoin cycles.
As BTC price hovers around $118,999, institutions continue to adopt it amid macro uncertainty. Analysts view Sequans’ aggressive accumulation as a signal of long-term belief in BTC’s resilience. However, market sentiment may remain cautious until volatility re-expands or BTC reclaims momentum.
